About Beet-ricotta spread

Beet-Ricotta Spread is a vibrant and creamy blend of roasted beets and ricotta cheese, inspired by Mediterranean and European cuisines. This colorful spread features earthy sweetness from the beets, balanced with the light, creamy texture of ricotta. Olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and herbs such as dill or parsley often complete the mix, adding freshness and depth of flavor. Rich in nutrients, beets contribute fiber, folate, iron, and antioxidants like betalains, which support heart health and reduce inflammation. Ricotta provides protein and calcium, though it’s moderately high in fat, making portion control important for those managing calorie intake. Perfect as a dip, sandwich spread, or a topping for crackers, Beet-Ricotta Spread offers both indulgence and nutritional benefits, especially in diets emphasizing whole foods and balanced flavors.
